Westbound traffic (right) is reduced to a crawl in this November file photo and the eastbound lanes (left) are closed on the Port Mann Bridge today due to a fatal accident on the westside of the bridge that links Coquitlam and Surrey across the Fraser River.

Image caption could be wrong as they've already stated in the article title as well as in another article on CBC that there are no injuries to report.

Yeah, image caption is from Nov. when someone died. Today, no injuries but I wouldn't be surprised if they close the outside lane when they try to pull the crane up.
